Beck, the Tea party and domestic terrorism

So Murfreesboro, TN remains a hot bed of bigoted hatred against Muslims.  Those who have followed this story at all (IF you could tear yourself away from your busy lives long enough to be bothered to care) already know that the fanatic, white Christians of Murfreesboro have their teats in a wringer over a proposed mosque being built in their community so they have sent attacking dogs after the Muslims there, set fire to the Mosque construction site AND shot at said site.  Luckily no one's been killed yet, but give it some time.  After all, the last group of fanatical whites to oppose a religious group sent their victims into gas ovens.  We can only guess what spectacular method of execution Americans can dream up for Muslims.  Given what was done to our Native American population by our collective hands, we may only guess it will be breathtaking in its showmanship and barbarity.  Back in the day, this is the sort of thing our sacred Constitution was supposed to protect minority groups from (the very definition of a Republic form of government), but today the radicals on the right willingly ignore that fact.  To them America is white, armed & Christian and these zealots are not colorblind.  It is no accident that black people are the highest group of people in American jails or prisons. 

Their fault for not being born mulattos I guess.

Now, there are people in places of power that just couldn't be happier about these activities, like Rupert Murdoch.  Murdoch, a foreigner and Australian (thank God he's white yeah?), is very old and probably senile but he's richer than God, so he has no common day worries like us yokels here on Main St.   Murdoch owns Fox News, the official channel of Republikkkan propaganda.  He claims not to have knowledge of any bias on his "news" network, but if that is true that must mean he's an oblivious idiot who lucked out amassing a fortune and I don't buy that for one second from this old shrewd and cunning cad.  He knows exactly what his Fox News does and he laughs about it all the way to the bank.  You can almost here his snarky laughter on his way there as he toasts those stupid Americans for helping make his bank accounts so damn full.  Of course it is in Murdoch's interests to rile up the commoners as it sells his newspapers, keeps his ratings high and sells lucrative ad space.  That's why he allows it to happen.  Besides, those dupes in Murfreesboro are no threat to him or his fellow Australians.

So to make money and make America a reality show laughing stock to the entire planet, Murdoch allows Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, Sarah Palin, Karl Rove and other Republikkkan criminals to say as they please whether it's true or not.  Fox News has demonstrated its willingness to do this repeatedly since the Clinton years and it has reached a fever pitch yet again now that a Democrat has taken the White House.  People forget the complicity of Fox News in the whole Clinton/Lewinsky fiasco and the venom which they spread that led to impeachment proceedings.  You can see why.  Karl Rove and other top Republikkkan strategists needed to create such a fiasco so that when George Bush unlawfully assumed the chair of President, they'd have a get out of jail free card for themselves.  After all, the whole Fox/GOP caused Lewinsky scandal is the entire excuse given for not impeaching George Bush by elected officials.  "Oh the nation doesn't want to go through that again!" they jovially proclaimed.  Which goes to show that elected officials do not listen to my voice (as they ought in a Republic) because I surely wanted and still want justice brought to Bush, but I digress and my fellow Americans don't have the stones to demand it.  But I'm off on a tangent and should get back to the matters at hand.

So we come to Glenn Beck, the Goebells of his people who preaches God, guns and revolt against the federal government for reasons of insanity (i.e. fundamentalist Christianity).  He and I share in common that we were both raised in fundamentalist Christian homes (his was Catholic and mine was Assembly of God), we were both traumatized by it and we both suffer psychological conditions (although the conditions differ). 

Beck is a self made man who was obviously influenced by the false prophet Rush Limbaugh.  He's also a Mormon, which should automatically disallow him from speaking for the Tea party (Mormons are as deluded by Satan as Catholics are after all and equally deserving of Hell fire for not accepting the true faith of Jesus Christ according to fundamentalist Christian teaching), but somehow has managed to overcome these detriment far better than Mitt Romney.    Maybe it's a "enemy of my enemy is my friend" sort of thing.  Or maybe Beck has officially (yet quietly) renounced his demonic Mormonism for Life Giving Salvation in the true faith.  Who knows? Maybe the Tea party is simply Beck's dupe.  What matters is that millions of people around this nation listen to his radio show or watch his TV show and that is getting to be a problem.

Here we hit the problem of free speech.  Now, in America, we don't all have free speech like those big buildings called corporations have, now that buildings are people with human rights thanks to those twisted fucks sitting on the Supreme Court.  We commoners are to be seen and not heard after all (now shut up and buy something before I throw you in jail maggot!).  We don't get TV shows handed to us like the Becks and Hannitys of the world even though we all have something important to say.  But they have our speech fairly well bottled up, even here online where they still read your shit and invade our privacy.  They have us broken down into graphs and polls.  Since when do you ask 500 people something and extrapolate that this is how all 360 million Americans feel and think?  That's crazy.  But they use these numbers regardless as if the polls themselves, like those concrete buildings on conscience, spoke for all of us 360 millioon singular, independent Americans.

Beck is a corporate goon, a willing henchman and accomplice to Murdochs indifference to what happens to the plebeians of America.  Beck sits there day in and day out spewing his lies happily making money to do so hand over fist, an American style Tokyo Rose, spokesperson for Australia, draped in the American flag and the blood of our fallen soldiers.  Beck claims he does this for his deep, passionate love for America but, if this were so, he'd be doing his schtick for free, not making one slim dime on "trying to save his country", but that's not what Beck is in this for really.  He's in it for the love of money and he is getting very rich indeed.  Still, I suppose even Goebells got paid; I shouldn't be too surprised that greed is a universal moral among those who seek power.  But Beck abuses his power as does his friend Palin.  Beck actually foments rebellion and hints at executions.  So if a person can't yell fire in a crowded theater, why does Beck get to get away with it in a crowded country?  It is no accident that Murfreesboro is becoming violent, or that a cultural center/YMCA for Arabs has become a little mosque on the crater, or that Arizona is becoming militant like most of the South.  Murdoch, Beck and his kith and kin have stirred up all of this knowingly and willingly.

So now we have the radicals firing the first shots of what could swell into a bloody mess.  Hatred, a Tea party value since day one, is in abundant supply amongst its followers.  The conspirators in this movement whisper of overthrowing the government and executions of the highest officials as they polish their weapons and listen to Beck encourage their rage, their bigotry and their stupidity.  Their anger takes on a new level of vehemence because not only is the guy in office a Communist (what the right views all Dumbacrats as). he's black.  The President has it wrong to think his Presidency is above race because it simply isn't.  White America is judging Obama everyday through bigoted eyes and only an idealist (yet fool) would deny this.  It's all about race in America.  Murfreesboro wouldn't even be in the news if white folk were building anything.  African Americans wouldn't enjoy their 1st place lead in prison population if not for good ole fashion American racism.  Hell, the LA riots over the King verdict wouldn't have happened if race weren't an issue.  Race, is the 500 pound gorilla in the room that Americans don't talk about, don't want to talk about and live in utter denial of even though it's wrecking our house.  As they say in therapy, you can't fix your troubles if you don't first admit you have one.  We as a nation need some therapy.

Yet there is Beck yammering away like he's really somebody although he could be tossed aside and replaced by someone more disturbing than he at any moment.  So he keeps make his show as over the top ridiculous as he can and the yokels are eating out of his hands like goats at a fair petting zoo.  To be expected after all.  As Herr Goebells has said: The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success one fundamental principle is born in mind constantly-- it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over."   Again, it is no accident that many Americans think Obama is a foreigner Muslim bent on taking down our Constitution.  Beck has a lot to answer for and I hope that if anyone does end up dying from his hate speech he faces either criminal charges for conspiracy to commit murder or face a civil suit arguing the same.
